STAR WARS SOUNDTRACK
None of them would be the same without the music that defines them: not the powerful Superman, the endearing ET, the brave Princess Leia nor the nasty Darth Vader. All are indebted to John Williams, author of the best film music in the past 50 years.
The soundtrack album of Star Wars was released by 20th Century Records as a double– LP record in the United States on May 25, 1977. The album’s main title peaked at No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100, with a disco version of the film’s theme by Meco becoming a number one single hit in the United States in October 1977. The soundtrack album itself went on to become certified Gold and Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America, and won numerous accolades including Academy Award, Golden Globe Award, BAFTA Award, and Grammy Awards in the categories of best film score and soundtrack album. In 2004, it was preserved by the Library of Congress into the National Recording Registry, calling it “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant”. In 2005, the American Film Institute named the original Star Wars soundtrack as the most memorable score of all time for an American film.
